You're a burglar, but instead of stealing things you do things to confuse or annoy your victims. What do you do?

A friend of mine told me once he would leave a zucchini on his mass transit bus seat. I don't know why. I was too dumbfounded to find out. Now I think it's kind of hilarious.

A painter's revenge fantasy for a customer who was difficult to collect from would be to go back and repaint that room a color they wouldn't like.

ed, LOL! My bride, who is quite non obsessive, is Rain Man like regarding crumbs in the bed. It's not really a problem when we're home. But, in hotels it requires some diligence.

When I worked for the prosecutor's office we had a serial burglar who worked a neighborhood. He would only steal small items, money, jewelry, etc. No TV's, electronic items. But he always ate. I mean he would cook a meal. He was particularly fond of breakfast, bacon and eggs being his go to breakfast.

Hey spinelli, unless the guy cooked breakfast with his gloves on (ewww) wouldn't he leave telltale fingerprints all over the place?

ricpic, He did leave fingerprints all over the place. However, he had never been fingerprinted, he was a younger guy w/ no prior record. He sold all the stolen jewelry to a fence who got busted for receiving stolen property. The fence was given a deal, gave us the hungry burglar's name and some jewelry he still had. The Jacque Pepin burglar was questioned and fingerprinted, and bingo! I think he was popped for ~8 burglaries. When a fence gets busted it's a bad day for his burglar clients.
